Gender specific differences in overall survival (OS) in patients with pulmonary neuroendocrine neoplasms (NENs) in a large United Kingdom (UK) tertiary centre

#3461

Introduction: Pulmonary NENs account for approximately 2% of all pulmonary malignancy. Overall survival data is mainly based on the USA SEER database or surgical cohorts, but data for the UK population is lacking. Only a few studies report on gender related outcomes and demonstrate no sex differences in overall survival.

Aim(s): To describe overall survival of a large UK cohort of patients with pulmonary NENs regardless any stage or treatment.

Materials and methods: A retrospective study on all patients (pts) recorded in our local database (2000-Sept 2021) with any type of pulmonary NEN was performed. Additional data regarding, age, sex, grading and overall survival (OS) were collected. The national database for statistics was checked for OS.
